Black plates are steel, Blue plates, some steel some aluminum,
My 73 240z has orig steel blue plates, my 70 z28 has aluminum blue plates.
The new Black plates are made with a personal number/letter or sequential,
but the color has alot of red in it looks nothing like orig black plates.
YOM or year of Mfg plates are big buisness in Ca and thats how we put Orig
plates on our 60s cars, plenty of legit dealers, also plates in Ca must be in pairs,
no value in single plates,Dealers also guarantee that the plates are "clear" or available to
register on your vehicle. The few people that restamp are a shifty bunch,and the "font" is never exactly correct.

This company makes reproductions of any state/country plate, but as you indicated in aluminum.

I used them to get the "TV-77" 1971 New York plates for my grandpa's 1971 Lincoln.

Licenseplates.tv use to make the black California style license plate many years ago but have since discontinued the service.

Steve, is the gold on the car the special anniversary gold that came on Lincolns that year? I forget the name of it.
